All through life we learn and grieve
Searching for the truth we've yet to see
With years of innocence and years of rage
Years of wonder and years of pain
It all begins with the gift of life
The warmth of family, the warmth of right
Don't stray from your path and lose it all
You'll open your eyes, you'll trip and fall
The truth will arise and with it comes sorrow
As well as uncertainty of our next tomorrows
But as life goes on you'll treasure it more
You'll learn that there is more for you in store
And as you grow, your memories will too
These pains, these smiles, all because of you
And when you're older you'll look back with pride
Because you've learned the true answer of the question...

"Why?"
